A robust program of collaboration with corporations and foundations is vital to IIRND’s success. By providing both a financial commitment and an avenue for intellectual exchange, such partnerships enable IIRND to advance bold ideas, lead breakthrough discoveries, and reimagine the applications, tools, and technologies that will shape tomorrow.

The IIRND’s Transfer and Corporate Partnerships (TCP) plays an integral role establishing and maintaining some of the Institute’s most complex, interdependent, and valuable corporate partnerships. TCP paves the way for productive collaborations and long-term partnerships involving corporations, government agencies, and other universities.

Our team understands the perspective of a corporation approaching a university to license technology, sponsor research or invest in our startups, and/or exchange technology, research, and information. We can also help guide you through the process of making a gift to IIRND, and recruiting or funding students and postdocs.

We will work with you to make the partnership process as easy as possible, providing a strong foundation for a mutually beneficial long-term relationship.
